If there is anyone interested in being my buddy please let me know. I used to do slimfast and have found that having a buddy to talk to really helps alot.

Hi Sherri!

I used to do slimfast too, actually for only two weeks because that's as much of it as I could stand being starving all the time. Right after started Atkins and never looked back! My husband tried slimfast also for a few months and has also now joined the atkins program! I bet you will enjoy this plan much more!

Here's a little about myself (I suffer from RSI so apologies if I cut short) -
I have been slightly overweight since puberty. Have been on a few (very strict and silly) diets and usually quickly lost somewhere up to a stone.
I've usually been somewhere around 1 - 2 stone overweight. Usually I have been on low fat diets and am thoroughly enjoying the decadence of full-fat everything! I recently put on a lot of weight after giving up smoking but have now lost most of that - I don't have much to lose but as yet am having no joy - still fairly hopeful after some encouraging comments on another thread! It's a big learning curve for me and I still need to think carefully when shopping. I am learning though, and am doing automatic checks of the labels.
I will say goodbye now, my typing time varies.

tks,kathy

Hi Sherri...I'm a Sherrie too! I still talk to my slimfast buddies and it helped me so much when I was doing that. I'd love to be your buddy!
Does it work the same as on the slimfast site? Do we send personal emails?
Sherrie

Just a reminder folks - we ask you not to post email addresses on this site.

You can keep in touch either here, or you can start journals here and exchange info there.

Hey Sherrie, we will find another way to communicate. Tomorrow I will start a journal and see if I can send it to you through there. For now we can just write in here.

Sherri, we ask you not to post emails at all. Please respect our forum rules.

I've moved your thread here to the "buddies" section, because this is exactly why this forum exists - for buddies to chat.
